Mango likes doing risky things but he knows they'll work because he's Mango and reads people like that.Hi, I've been reading the boards for a while but was always too timid to post since everyone else had such high post counts that my earlier opinions might be discarded or flamed. But I've been watching the most recent Pound 5 friendlies between PP and Mango in falco dittos and something's been nagging me. Is it just me, or is mango's falco continuously producing the strangest offshoots of metagame "progression" ever? He's doing very surprising things with moonwalking with varying characters (fox/falco) that I haven't seen just a mere year ago, considering that moonwalking was considered a solved technique by then. Is moonwalking with spacies worth looking into?
Moonwalking with spacies is worth looking into for edgeguarding purposes in my opinion, but I'm not sure about what else. All I know is I suck at moonwalking lol so you probably won't see me doing that. =p
I Uthrow for positional advantage unless there's a throw that puts Falcon offstage. Fthrow in general could work if you'd rather follow Falcon up that way.When I grab a falcon at really low percent what is the best throw to use?
It's not even the same game lol but I guess I could look at it for you.Just curious pp, I lost my memory card for melee so...
I was wondering if I could record a p:m match that u may be able to critique. I know it isn't exactly the same but you may be able to spot problems or lapses in a playstyle that more than likely pans across both games.
Considering I looooove conditioning this is the kind of stuff I like to talk about.jpobs, you win for that.
lets talk more about conditioning your opponent!
i like to mix in a lot of empty short hops and land dashes in between my lasers. sometimes i just drop combos so that hopefully they will survival DI and get combo'd harder next time they're in the same situation.
favorite for me: pretending I suck (like just blatant air dodges and stuff when you know the opponent can't punish for it) to lull them into a false sense of security
Falco has so many tricks in his combo game as it is you could just use moves that hit them in ways they don't need to survival DI(like Uair/Dair/Fair) and then **** them with Nair/Bair/smashes later on haha. I still haven't gotten that art down at all but it's so good to do to get those early kills if people don't know what you're going for so they DI funny.
I try to pretend I suck too but then they all tell me to stop sandbagging. =(
